The Good Boy
Synopsis
Fresh and unsettling, The Good Boy is an intense and unforgettable genre-bending thriller that unfolds like a dark fairy tale, from Academy Award–nominated director Jan Komasa (Corpus Christi).
Nineteen-year-old hooligan Tommy (Anson Boon) is on a bender with his wild friends. When he becomes separated from the group, he continues partying into the early hours. Though he is no stranger to inflicting violence, Tommy is horrified when he wakes with a chain around his neck in the basement of the isolated suburban family home of well-to-do Chris (Stephen Graham), his wife Kathryn (Andrea Riseborough), and their young son Jonathan. The kidnapping is part of a process of turning Tommy into a “good boy.” Finding himself the subject of a forced rehabilitation while trapped inside a dysfunctional family unit, he seeks escape at any cost. But as Tommy learns more about his captors, instead of dissenting, he learns to assimilate – and feels his collar loosen.
Starts July 2 at Luna Leederville and Luna on SX.

Reviews
★★★★ Bracingly wicked... with high-concept provocations and talking points that feel like something from the age of Kubrick’s Clockwork Orange or Ôshima’s Max Mon Amour.
Bong Joon ho–esque.
[A] mix of fractured fable and terroristic morality play.
A wickedly strange, psychologically rich fairy tale that explores just how far humans will go to fix what’s broken inside them.
★★★★ Jan Komasa’s pitch-black comedy will have you squirming on the end of a chain leash
